Release of New Benchtop SEM JCM-6000Plus NeoScope™ ? Equipped with high-sensitivity semiconductor detector, delivering efficient analysis

JEOL Ltd. (President Gon-emon Kurihara) has developed a new benchtop scanning electron microscope, JCM-6000Plus NeoScope™, designed to fulfill the diversifying needs of customers and expansion of the market. Sale of the new model will start in August 2015.

Product development background

Scanning electron microscopes are being utilized in an expanding range of fields, such as medicine, biology, nanotechnology, metals, semiconductors, and ceramics. In addition, the applications cover a wide spectrum, from basic research to quality control at the manufacturing site.

The JCM-6000Plus is equipped with the high-sensitivity semiconductor detectors found in high-end instruments, making it easy to acquire composition contrast information about the specimen, and enabling efficient analysis. The series continues to include the high-vacuum functionality and secondary electron detector, offering the ability to clearly observe fine structures on the specimen surface at high magnification.
